Today We Climb Over the
Top of October
Already the trees, gardens and fields are
busy taking off thqir summer clothes and
putting on their Autumn garb,
The many tints of brilliant color in the
woods and along the riversides are worthy of
the time it takes for the drive or even for. a
long walk.
The next high wind or ptprmy day will
mightily change the beautiful landscape of
yesterday,
Almost all our new fall goods were
bought since the Store nearly emptied itself
by its memorable sweep-out of stocks in the
first half of the year and we were therefore
left free and open tp take advantage of lower
costs in replenishing in August ajid
September for our present large October
sales.
Our customers often pay, "We know by
past experience of many years where to go to
find right and reliable qualities and prjcps
properly regulated by every reduction tht
can be made, and as fast as it appears, every
day.''

Unrivaled Colors and Sm&rt
Shapes in These Distinctive
New Redleaf Hats
"There aie no sports hate like the English hats!"
Over and over again women tell us that as .they select these
charming, pretty huts that we bring from overseas.
A Brand-New Shipment Has Just JLqnded
and it includes the newest British sports hats for Autumn and
the Winter.
Soft, furry moufflons and lustrous chenille hats are the domi
nating features, though there aro any number of wool and felt
hats, too. There aro n.ew shapes, hats with brims which may be
bent to best frame the wearer's face, hats with roll brims, small
hots for motoring, larger hats for geneial .wear; hats, in fn.ct, for
all sports needs.
Tfo Colors Are Beautifid
nnd the combinations are both artistic and becoming, picture, for
instance, a rich, silky brown chenille hat with a wide and gleaming
band of rose satin ribbon, or a russet brown with a deeper brown,
or a mauve with an orchid band. Sometimes the chenille hats are
faced with darker felt and have trimmings to harmonize.
But there are delightful cplors from which to choose jade
green and robin's-egg blue, rose and henna and copper, all the
browns from soft tans and band to African brown, lilac, mauve and
orchid, and gray and black as woll.

This Is the Oriental Rug
Sale for Which So Many
Were Waiting
People who have "been thinking" for years afymt
buying Oriental rugs are buying them in this remark
able Sale. No wonder!
It is surely the Sale they have been waiting for.
It is the opportunity of years. It is the only opportu
nity of the kind that we know of. It is notable for low
prices, but the thing that makes the low prices really
worth while is the remarkable variety of fine Oriental
weaves, sizes and color effects to which they apply.
There are great carpets from Persia and China; there
are small rugs from most of the Eastern weaving
districts; there are medium-sized rugs in unusual
choice; and every rug in the sale is marked 30 to 50
per cent below the ruling price at retail.
